Video: Montana Hunter Films Mountain Lion Stalking Two Bull Elk

When you’re out hunting in Montana, you never know when the animal you’re hunting might already be spoken for by another predator. And if that predator is brave enough to try and take down two bull elk, you best let it be. . .

That’s what happened to this hunter when he was out elk and deer hunting, and he saw a mountain lion putting a stalk on a couple bull elk he had been following.

The video shows the large cat creep closer and closer, before finally bounding down the mountain towards the elk. According to the Montana Sportsman‘s YouTube video description, however, “the cat pushed the elk further onto private property and we never got the chance to see them again. Just another day hunting in Montana.”

Here’s the video:
